Re: {Chrysler 300} No reverse



That reminds me, I had that happen to my G on the way to a meet. I think it was related to being slightly over filled, which might have caused some foaming of the fluid. The reverse blocker may have also been stuck from heat after extended highway driving. It never returned on mine either.

Hi all,
I had an unmolested '61 Newport wagon that I drove on a tour and stopped at a restaurant. For the first time, NO reverse to park it. Had not happened before. I let it sit after a push into parking space. Returned to hotel and just parked it using "drive".
Next day, the reverse miraculously returned and never failed again for the next 14 years! Just luck?

I ALWAYS put any car I have that I own that has been sitting more than a week in neutral for a count of 60 - 90 seconds. I wait until oil pressure is up - I’ve tested the brake pedal - and the engine is running smoothly. Then and only then do I ease the car into gear. 

The next thing I do is - after it’s out - is put back in neutral- with the brake on - and walk back in the garage to see what is left on the floor - if anything. I have a sheet of cardboard under each car to anything.

These vehicles are designed to be used and prolonged storage really hurts them.

I try to drive everyone of my vehicles once a month or 6 weeks on the outside. Winter storage from January to March is the only time they sit for a prolonged period.

 Sometimes it’s not on the floor, it’s just drained out of the converter? How long did you leave it in gear? Do you have forward gears?

I agree with Fern; warm the car up and check the fluid.  And check to see what you might have left on the floor over the time it’s been stored.

Hi all. I drove my 300H into the shop about a year and a half ago. I finally got it ready to take out and I have no reverse. It worked fine when I drove it in. Anyone else have a problem like this?
Thanks in advance. Bill G.
